Slim Jeans for Women

Slim Jeans for Women

What defines a slim jeans for women?

A slim jeans for women is cut close to the body and follows the shape of the leg without being completely tight. It sits narrower than a straight jeans but leaves a little more room than a skinny jeans. This makes it a great combination of a sleek silhouette and comfortable fit. At Tom Tailor, all styles contain a small amount of elastane for stretch and freedom of movement. You'll find slim jeans in high and mid waist heights, in a range of colours from light blue to grey, with a classic button-and-zip fastening.

What is the difference between slim and skinny jeans?

Both slim and skinny jeans have a narrow cut, but they differ in how the leg fits. A skinny jeans hugs the body closely from hip to hem, following the leg almost like a second skin. A slim jeans is also close-fitting, but leaves a little more room through the leg, particularly towards the hem. This creates two practical differences:

• Fit: Skinny fits snugly all the way down; slim follows the shape without restricting.
• Feel: The slightly roomier leg of a slim jeans often makes it feel more effortless in everyday wear.

If you want a slim silhouette but prefer a little less tightness through the leg, slim jeans are the right choice.

Who are slim fit jeans suitable for?

Slim fit jeans suit many different body types, as the narrow cut creates a lengthening effect and is easy to style. The right waist height is key to a good fit: a high waist accentuates the waist, whilst a mid waist sits comfortably between the hip and waist. Thanks to the stretch content, all styles are comfortable for everyday wear. Ultimately, the most important thing is what feels right for you.

Which waist heights and lengths are available?

Slim jeans are available in every waist height, so you can choose what suits your preference and figure:

• High waist – Slim High Waist Jeans: reaches the waist, accentuates it and creates a balanced silhouette.
• Mid waist – Slim Mid Waist Jeans: sits comfortably between the hip and waist for an effortless fit.
• Low waist – Slim Low Waist Jeans: sits lower on the hips for a relaxed, laid-back look.

There are also various lengths available, from full-length through 7/8 and capri to ankle-length and shorter styles. The shorter lengths end at or above the ankle and pair well with flat shoes or, on warmer days, with sandals.

What materials are slim jeans made from?

Most styles are made predominantly from cotton, which feels comfortable against the skin and is well suited to everyday wear. Additional fibres are also used across the range:

• Organic cotton in a number of styles.
• Recycled cotton and recycled polyester, sometimes as REPREVE® fibre, clearly labelled as such at Tom Tailor.
• Viscose for a softer feel on selected styles.
• A small proportion of elastane in all styles for stretch and freedom of movement.

The exact fibre composition of your chosen jeans can always be found directly in the product description.

How do I style slim jeans for women?

Because slim jeans are close-fitting without being skin-tight, they're easy to style with both loose and fitted tops. Tucking a T-shirt or a blouse loosely into the waistband draws attention to the waist, especially with a high rise. A longer top or a knit jumper falls over the narrow hip for a clean, relaxed look. With shorter 7/8 and ankle lengths, the ankle stays exposed, which lets flat shoes, loafers or sandals take centre stage. Full-length styles also pair well with boots, which the narrow leg tucks into easily.
